Itinerary and highlights

Inkilltambo is a ceremonial huaca built during Inca Wiracocha’s government. In this site, you can find carved rocks connected to narrow passageways, as well as rectangular enclosures, platforms, fountains, staircases and canals from the pre-Hispanic era.

Laqo is the original name of this archaeological site better known as the Temple of the Moon. A few years ago, archaeologists found here the bodies of eight children who might have been sacrificed in Inca times. These children could have been the servants or Capac Qochas of Amaro Topa Inca, Pachacuteq´s offspring and Tupac Yupanqui´s brother.

Kallachaka - In the wetland of Wayllarcocha, the adventure begins. Towards the bottom, it is possible to see the remains of the polygonal platform of the canalization of the Inkilltambo river like the Inca sites of Chuspiyoc, Kallachaka Choqekiraw Pukyo.
